CDA Chamber suspends large gatherings

COEUR d'ALENE — The Coeur d'Alene Regional Chamber of Commerce has hit the pause button on large gatherings.

The chamber's executive committee voted unanimously Thursday to postpone its public safety awards program and cancel the September Upbeat Breakfast, said Ann Thomas, the chamber board chair.

Thomas said the committee will monitor the fluid COVID situation every two weeks to determine when large gatherings might resume.

"We've got to support our hospital and do our part to help keep our community safe," Thomas said.
